The Grit Cookbook: World-Wise, Down-Home Recipes

The Grit, a beloved institution in the quintessential boho town of Athens, Georgia, is known far and wide as the touring indie musician's restaurant of choice. The focus at The Grit is not on what is missing (the meat) but on what is abundantly present: the bounty of the well-stocked larder and seasonal farmer's market. While there are plenty of Italian, Indian, Mexican, and Middle Eastern favorites to satisfy the well-traveled vegetarian, the heart of their cuisine maintains a down-home, soul-food feeling: big portions, simple foods, and classic combinations always guaranteed to please. Updated to include 20 new recipes to celebrate the 20th anniversary of this famous establishment, this classic cookbook features 150 of The Grit's most requested recipes.
